Ah, I get you now. You're right in thinking that John's post was off-colour and not entirely acceptable but to suggest that John is slinging shit directly at particular needs children is a stretch. Even if you are right in what you are thinking, you express it in a way that no matter who reads what you've written, people will take issue with it and wish to argue with you. Superb trollery, D63. You've had me wondering for while now and I have seen trolls who were the stuff of nightmares. Much worse than Pete ... much, much worse
I am surprised there is any space left at the top of the moral high ground for D63 to occupy, but I should have known better, there is never any shortage of people willing to take offence on behalf of others, even when that offence was never intended. I make no apologies.
loz, your a nice lad but a little out your depth. stick to your own dictatorship and let us up here get on with the complicated stuff like democracy annat no?.. :smileys:
:Hilarious: finm! :Hilarious: Let me know when you are actually prepared to step up from parochial politics and join the rest of us in the big leagues. Meantime, keep practicing in the novice category (aka Holyrood).
ok. but hang on a mo. i know what you actual think of yours so on the other hand maybe no. you can keep it. :Smuggrin:
There is a reason my wife ending up doing what she is now and that is because our own son has learning difficulties and we have had to fight for ever little bit of help we have managed to get for him. The system treats these youngsters as a problem they would rather not have to deal with. We have two sets of friends going through the same issue and again the system thinks if its going to cost them money then they would rather it was someone elses problem.
I have two friends who fight similar battles on behalf of their children. A horrible situation that is often made worse by officialdom,
Are we straying on to genuine mental disorders, chemical imbalances, poor parenting and that made up ADHD now? Mind you, there could be an argument thats still connected to Brexit BTW best groaner I've heard was the guy telling me its about 'inclusiveness in UK' how 'proud of the Olympics and how we were the toast of the world' followed by 'now we are broken, the worlds joke' and 'vote out was just supporting the racists and by racists' and 'some people shouldn't be allowed to vote, there needs to be something done to stop the uneducated voting' Not sure, but think there may be countries more of a joke than the UK.... The debate about me being a racist was enlightening.
People who think other people whose opinions they do not like should not be allowed to vote should themselves not be allowed to vote. If you don't understand that there is no right or wrong outcome in democracy, if you cannot accept that your side might not always prevail and if you refuse to respect the legitimacy of a result that displeases you, you are poison to the process of democracy and it would function better without your participation.
My nephew has Asperger and my brother fought the system and got full LEA funding for him to attend a special school in Derbyshire He also secured hiring a car each weekend to collect him and take him back as the system said he would be OK to trave by taxi! with another child with special needs on their own!!! No way!!
I am glad you said that and not me Whilst there are obviously some genuine cases the willingness of some so called health professionals to diagnose syndromes, prescribe drugs and get back handers from the drug companies is a bit alarming. Now where did I leave that tin hat ?
